The Strand opened in 1914, located on Lincoln Avenue near Southport and Wellington Avenues in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. By the 40s, the theater had been renamed the City Theater, which operated into the 60s. Today, the building houses a carpeting store.

CHICAGO-G&E Theatre Corp. has acquired the Lincoln Theatre and the City Theatre, 3031 N. Lincoln. The latter will be managed by S. J. Angelos. The theatres were previously owned and operated by the CVN circuit.
